Once more, Chris and Juliana took their place out on the dance floor with everyone else.
As the themes from each town played, intermixed with the Sound Stone melody, the various couples danced around the room. Even the people who hadn't dance all night managed to find someway to enjoy the final dance.
You can tell Chris is nervous because his grammers is breaking down. 'hadn't dance', 'someway', etc. And I don't know what the point to that final throwaway line is; does he think the girl-less boys will feel better now? He's trying to be gracious in victory?Finally, after all the music was finished, everyone clapped, and sat down again. The DJ said a few little good-bye messages. Then...
Yes, good, let's all move on now.

"Yes!"
Yes! YES! I don't care what your conditions are! I'm getting attention from a girl!!!(Thank god for evenly divisible numbers!)
...what?"Now, what's your opinion, Mark..."
Meanwhile...
and
Mark Said...
...it's like he set up a multiple choice to help himself decide which way to end his post, but couldn't decide and just tossed all three in there. Too excited and hyper to think straight, probably.

The dance was over. "What's everyone doing now?" Juliana wondered aloud.
"I don't know," Chris replied. "People will probably find someplace else to party. You know how these Starmen.Net people are, Juliana."
Oh, ho, ho, you have no idea. Some of the stories I've heard from the conventions the last few years...Juliana laughed. "I know, I know. It's true. I bet there'll be a party on the beach, or something. It's pretty cold out there, though, so I'm not sure what'll happen."
No, it isn't. You're near the equator and it's July or August, according to the timeframe you set up yourself. Even at 3:00 it's about 95 degrees out and muggy as hell.The two of them walked over to waffle and Luna, who had been dancing as well. "So, what are you guys doing now?" Chris asked. "We're wondering if any partying is going on now, or anything like that."
Wait, aren't you two the alleged Syndicate members?

Drew takes the DJ megaphone and says, "Hey! I rigged up a wireless SNES and 2 Huge GBCs which are hacked so anyone with a Paula's Quest(My home made game!) cart or their EB cart can participate in a tourney! Sign up on the wall!"
That's quite a hack. An SNES cart is about the same size as a GBC.The People who signed up for each game were...
Power to The People! Down with the Man!

"You know, I'm not supposed to tell you this until tomorrow, but the Syndicate is building a small amusmant park behind the main hotel. We could go visit it and hang out there for a while." Chris said.
Um... glad you remembered you're supposed to be the boss here, but Juliana ranks higher in the Syndicate than you do, and you're confiding Syndicate activities to her that she doesn't know about? How does that work?"Sounds like a great idea." Waffle replied.
"Let's go!" Juliana and Luna said at the same time.
So, Chris led the way to the amusamant park.
Yikes. That's the second different butchering of 'amusement' Chris has committed in a few lines.When they arrived, they saw that there was already a ferris wheel and a simple roller coaster built, with a log flume set to open tomorrow. The four arrived at the park, and...
And at post #160, the Gathering finally breaks free of the beach/hotel area.
